Prior to her return to NBC, Hunter was vice president of comedy development at 20th Century Fox Television from 2005 to 2008. Before that, she was VP of development and production at Bravo, working on such shows as Matt Damon and Ben Affleck’s Project Greenlight, Blowout, Significant Others and Kathy Griffin: My Life on the D-List. (side note: If Kathy Griffin’s life is really lived on the D list, why on earth do I have to hear so much about her?)

Hunter graduated from Atlanta’s Spelman College with a B.A. in English. Apparently some English majors figure out something productive to do with that degree. I’m still working on it.
